The Smart Cyber-Physical Systems of Sustainable Industry 4.0: Innovation-driven Manufacturing Technologies, Creative Cognitive Computing, and Advanced Robotics
Keith W. CosgraveABSTRACT. This research investigates the smart cyber-physical systems of sustainable Industry 4.0. Building my argument by drawing on data collected from Ad Hoc Research, BCG, BDO, CIO, DAA, EY, IoT Analytics GmbH, and McKinsey, I performed analyses and made estimates regarding qualifications needed more or less by employees in the future (%), top targets for supply chain improvement (%), and important factors to deploy disruptive technologies (%). The data for this research were gathered via an online survey questionnaire and were analyzed through structural equation modeling on a sample of 4,600 respondents.
